SetupVodafone

Setup Vodafone

opkg update
opkg install -force-reinstall kernel-image-2.6.37
opkg list-installed | grep kernel-module | cut -f 1 -d ' ' | xargs opkg install -force-reinstall

Reboot (this is the preferred way to perform soft reboots):

echo performance > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor && reboot

Copy over the connection file

wget http://readonly:secret@svn.crm.ventureresearch.com/svn/linux/src/venture-wwan/WWAN-vodafone -O /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/WWAN
chmod 600 /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/WWAN

This connection is internally called “Vodafone” not “Verizon”. So you may want to toggle that instead.

Testing Vodafone module

Bring up the connection manually (or wait for vrcm to automatically bring it up once Ethernet is unplugged)

nmcli con up id Vodafone
